Christmas is right around the corner. When it’s over and you’re putting away your decorations, these Christmas storage ideas will keep everything stored and organized while you’re not using them.

This Christmas Ornament Storage Box is a must-have to keep your ornaments protected and all together. This box can hold up to 64 holiday ornaments and has cardboard dividers to keep them separated.


This Whitmor Clear Gift Wrap Organizer is a great way to keep all your wrapping paper together. It holds up to 25 rolls, and it zips shut so none of them will fall out. I definitely need this for my wrapping paper stash!


Do you use an artificial Christmas tree? Protect it from damage throughout the year when you keep it in this Large Christmas Tree Storage Bag. This is another one that’s going on my to-buy list!


Keep your wreaths safe while you store them in this Christmas Wreath Storage Bag. This protects your wreaths from damages, dust, moisture and pests.


There’s nothing that frustrates me more when I’m decorating for the holidays than having to untangle lights. This Wire and Christmas Lighting Storage Bag solves that problem. This comes with 3 spools that you can wind your lights around to make them easier to use next year. 


If you’re looking for a longer Christmas Ornament Storage Box, this one will slid under your bed – a great place to store it so it’s accessible but out of the way.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD.

My Child is Prone to Colds (My Solution)

I just shared this on my personal Facebook page and also wanted to share with you all…

My oldest daughter is always getting sick. Chronic runny noses. Occasionally out of school. As a former teacher and a an award winner of perfect attendance in fourth grade, I had to solve this dilemma! So I approached my expert panel of 700 close friends on Facebook and asked them what was the best solution for chronic colds. The frequent answer I got back was Elderberry.

In that Facebook thread, some of the moms I know, shared their talent for creating homemade syrups and their own gummy recipes. I was so proud of them. They deserve a piece of my fourth grade perfect attendance award! I, however, have five kids and a full time job and elderberry syrups was not on my list of things to make in the evening (usually I prefer a good boxed powder macaroni and cheese.) My solution was Amazon Prime.

I picked up these Nature’s Way Sambucus Elderberry Gummies and they are working great. She has not been sick in a month and we have gone through some serious seasons of cold days and warm days (yes, we were an area of the country that was affected by the recent polar vortex.) If you don’t like Nature’s Way brand, there are many other Elderberry Gummies and Elderberry Syrups online. We did try the Sambucol Syrup too and she was not a fan of the syrup in general.)


Right now there is a coupon you can clip if you do subscribe and save with the Nature’s Way brand or like me order right away and get in a few days. Remember prices and coupons are subject to change on Amazon. I have to say that.

She takes them in the evening around dinner time (just the time we chose.) If it is a day where she is getting less sleep from activity or homework or if she is feeling tired or exposed to a cold, we double the dose (morning and night.) Friends told me, when they are sick, they take a dose every two hours. We have not tried that. Please read what is recommended on the back of your bottle.

Let me know how it works for you.

Thanks for sitting through my terrible humor.

Also, I am not a doctor. I am not claiming anything. Just letting you know this seems to have worked for us the past four weeks.

You’re welcome.
